Published to commemorate Ishiuchi's receipt of the 1914 Hasselblad Award, includes a critical essay by Sandra Phillips and a short story by Yanagi Suo, in Japanese and English The book is filled with haunting photographs of pieces of clothing and other artifacts from the Hiroshima atomic blasts. "[Ishiuchi] has made these delicate, sensitive pictures of the clothing people wore when they died a Hiroshima that terrible day. They are another kind of memorial to a past moment. It can be said that these new pictures are deeply original and uncommonly beautiful....She arranges each piece, some seem to float off the table they are set on and many have the restless energy of the fabric that clothes the Victory of Samothrace. These pieces of damaged clothing seem to contain the spirit of those who wore them."--Sandra Phillips.
